Wimbledon Classics: Ladies Finals 1978 and 1993

Saturday 14 June: BBC Two 09:30 – 11:30

Sue Barker looks back at two of Wimbledon’s most memorable ladies’ singles matches. The 1978 final was the first of five at the All England Club between Chris Evert and Martina Navratilova, and was a see-saw battle that ranked among the best of their many duels in a 15-year rivalry.

The 1993 final was also a topsy-turvy, emotional contest that went to three sets, with top seed Steffi Graf aiming for a third consecutive title against Jana Novotna, one of the most gifted grass court players in the women’s game.

Wimbledon Classics: Andy Murray v Novak Djokovic 2013

Saturday 21 June: BBC Two: 10:15 – 12:15

Murray returned to the scene of his Olympic triumph 12 months previously and the atmosphere was every bit as highly-charged in sweltering conditions in south-west London.

The Scot beat world number one Novak Djokovic in straight sets, but the match – over three hours long – was anything but straightforward. The final game was a thriller with Murray letting slip three match points before finally following in the footsteps of Fred Perry’s 1936 victory at the All England Club.
